But in the future, it will be prized for its practical uses rather than for its aesthetic appeal. It wasn’t until early in the last century that gold’s electrical conductivity properties were discovered. Solid state electronic devices use very low voltages and currents, which are easily interrupted by corrosion at the contact points. Gold is such an efficient conductor that it can carry these tiny currents and remain free of corrosion, making the devices highly reliable. A small amount of gold is used in almost every modern electronic device, and it is predicted that within ten years, more gold will be used in the production of electronics than in jewellery.  \nWhich one of the following best expresses the main conclusion of the above argument? A In the future gold will be prized for its practical uses rather than for its aesthetic appeal.  \nB It wasn’t until early in the last century that gold’s electrical conductivity properties were discovered.  \nC Gold is such an efficient conductor that it can carry tiny electrical currents and remain free of corrosion.  \nD A small amount of gold is used in almost every modern electronic device.  \nE Within ten years, more gold will be used in the production of electronics than in jewellery.  \n2 A quiz consists of 7 rounds, each of which contains 20 questions. Each question is worth one point. At the end of the quiz, but before any of the answers or scores are revealed, each team is allowed to select one of the rounds and the score for that round is tripled. In addition, the scores for the rounds immediately before and after the chosen round are doubled. The winning team at last week’s quiz had the following scores in each of the rounds.  \n\n| round | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| score | 14 | 16 | 6 | 20 | 10 | 18 | 4 |\n\nThe winning team’s final score was 136.  \nWhich round did the winning team choose to have the score tripled? A round 2  \nB round 3  \nC round 4  \nD round 5  \nE round 6  \n3 Whether known as the high street, main street, or market square, central shopping districts in many towns throughout the world are in danger of disappearing.
